The Ketchum keystone. [volume] (Ketchum, Idaho) 1885-1899, 1887-03-19

From the treatment Of the North
by South Idaho. it IL evident that
W must b held in servitude and
bondage till doomsday. Outrage
after outrage has been perpetrated
upon our honest and law-biding cit
liens BY the southern public off,
cials, in the face of all that was
just and good. Even the Governor
has turned TRAITOR; yes TRIAL
Tori! and been the direct means
of the defeat Of Annexation. The
last source from whence we could
expect release has turned from W.
But we will wait and see if we are
to be dupes eternally. The selfish
fiends who are now gloating over
their treachery will have another
deal to play against that will be
death to them Go, We sleuths from
the depths of pollution!l Depart
from the Threshold of our hearts
and homes and the devil take you
and reward you according to the
amount of sorrow and depression
you have wrought US.
Lewiston Teller, March 10.
We may love Mr.. Cleveland, be-
cause we are commanded to love
our enemies" but we shall not ex-
tend to him any greater warmth
of affection, simply because he has
been, or may be, our enemy. We do
not appreciate his method of sign
ing our annexation bills. His veto
concurs with the will of the people
of North Idaho, as also with the
wishes of the congress in passing
the bill, in but one thing and that
is in perfect unanimity. The peo-
pie and the congress were unani-
nous in favor of the bill, and Mr..
Cleveland, was equally unanimous,
in vetoing it.
